Hi!
Today it is time for another manicure from
Untried Polish Challenge. This time it was really hard, because I have some untried polishes that are more than 4 years old, and I couldn't tell which one is the oldest, because with all of my 300+ bottles I really can't rememberer the date I bought each and every one of them.
There were quite a few polishes in the category of 4+ years. I decided to pick two colours that look quite well together and did a really simple manicure. I loved wearing it.
I picked:
Color Club Rule Breaker (1 coat)
Alessandro 257 (4 coats)
After applying Rule Breaker I immediately fall in love with it! I can't believe that I had to wait 4 years to wear this polish. It is a one coater with loads of shimmer. It looks slightly metallic and it will definitely work great for stamping. I really have to try this out ASAP.
On the other hand Alessandro was really shear, I had to apply 4 coats to reach full opacity (it could work well with layering).
Here is a close up on my nails:
What do you think? Do you have Rule Breaker?
It's time for another big mix post!!!!
These pictures are at least 3 years old, probably even older, but they deserve to be published =).
Looking at this pictures really makes me wonder where'd my nails go? The looks so pretty and healthy, but now they are constantly pealing and breaking. It's probably my fault since I don't take care as much as I used to did.

| Color Club: I believe in Amour stamped with konad m66 and Lacura pink and brown |

| Allesandro go magic! Queen Berry with included magnet |
Which one is your favourite? I can't decide =).
In this post I'm going to show you how I ungraded my first holo gradient
for the gradient I used Magnetic: Shimmering Silver and Color Club Wild at Heart and than I added flowers with M51 and Wild at Heart. I really loved how it looked and and I wore it like 4 days or maybe even more =).
I only did one mistake. I put a thick coat of top coat on my nails before sleeping and I got a little( quite big) sheet mark on my middle finger. You will probably notice it on my last picture.
I hope you like it=)
All pictures were taken on the sun, only the last one was taken in shade, and you can really see the sheet marks. I'm a bit ashamed that this happened, and I firstly didn't want to show it, but then I said what the hell, this happend to each and every one of us at least once=)
Have a lovely day!
Hi!
Lately I've been really obsessed with gradient manicures so I decided to to as many as I can =).
Here is my first one =)
I love it although it isn't nearly as perfect as I wanted it to be =)
For this one I used Magnetic Shimmering Silver and Color Club Wild at Heart.
They are both awesome and together they look even better =)
Sadly I just couldn't take a decent picture of holo effect
Here are the pictures:
a bit blurry one
And in shade
(not so perfect gradient and color accurate)
I guess practice makes it perfect and next one will look much better =)
I just put some stamping on, and I LOVE it even more. You'll see the pictures tomorrow or on Saturday =)
Enjoy your day!
HI!
Lately there is a lot of scotch tape manicures in the blogging word because of Erika from
Chloe's nails. She makes really awesome nail arts only with scissors and scotch tape(but I think you all already know this)! In one of her posts she also used crafting scissors and because I loved it so much I just had to try it. You can check out here version
here.
Here are the pictures of my version:
I used 2 coats od Color Club: Frostbite for the base, and than added one coat of Essence: Fatal. In the end I applied Seche Vite fat drying top coat.
Do you like my version of scotch tape manicure?
This wasn't my first attempt of a manicure with a scotch tape. A few years ago, I wanted to do a manicure in rasta colours, and I also used scotch tape for it, but because I didn't wait long enough for all the coats to dry I had a really ugly manicure instead =). At least I learned a lesson from that. And also this is probably the reason why I waited so long to try it again, but as I asid I just couldn't resist the crafting scissors pattern =).
There is also something new on my blog. I'm going to do
Guest Nails! posts. You can read more about them
here. I really hope this will work, because I think it is a great opportunity for unknown bloggers to gain some readers and also I will also have a wonderful opportunity to meet some of my followers more in person =).
Have a nice day!
Hi!
Yesterday I promised a comparison between Revvvolution and Black diamond.
You can see how different they look in the bottles in shade
Revvvolution looks a lot more lighter grey shade than black diamond
another picture of the nails in shade, here you can see, that Revvvolution is much darker on nails than it is in the bottle. Revvvolution looks almost black here, while BD is still dark grey as in the bottle.
And now, to the pictures on sun and the holographic effect.
I have to warn you, that it wasn't the best day for a holographic nail polish comparison, because the sun wasn't shining at it's best so the holographic effect isn't as visible as it should be. But still we can see how different the holo effect is. BD has more scattered holo which is also weaker and Revvvolution has more rainbow looking holo, also the holographic glitter isn't the same. Revvvolution has more orange and BD has more blue glitter in it. I hope you'll be able to see that on the next 2 pictures
sorry for such a big photo, but I just had to enlarge it *blush*
I know that this is not the best comparison, but I think that it is clear that this 2 polishes aren't even close to being dupes, and I'm glad I have both of them , especially beacuse I'm a holo fan =).
What do you think about this 2, which one do you like more? Do you think you need both?
